Marion Cotillard was recently photographed at the Cannes Film Festival wearing a Chanel blazer-style shirt and pleated skirt, inspiring us to upgrade our boring black blazer and pencil skirt. If you are also feeling inspired then you will love our selection of blazers and pleated skirts to shake up your wardrobe classics.

Saba Celeste Wool Double Breasted Blazer

The Celeste Wool Double Breasted Blazer from Saba in French Navy is a chic option to match to a pleated skirt or tailored pants, and will look equally chic with jeans and loafers for a preppy fit.

Cue Matte Satin Viscose Double Breasted Blazer

If you are looking for a looser fit but not an oversized blazer you may find the Matte Satin Viscose Double Breasted Blazer from Cue the perfect fit for you. We love the subtle sheen of the matte satin, and the Coffee Bean colourway is a chic deviation from basic black.

Sussan Double Breasted Check Blazer Coat

Looking to add a little bit of Marion's French style to your chic casual wear? This Double Breasted Check Blazer Coat from Sussan is a cosy choice that will keep you warm while adding countryside style to your jeans and boots fit.

Zara Pleated Midi Skirt with Belt

Pleat your way into elegance with this Pleated Midi Skirt with Belt from Zara. The khaki colourway will match beautifully with navy, cream and black, and the classic design will give you versatility to match with mules, kitten heels and even sneakers to dress the skirt down with a t-shirt and biker jacket.

Jacqui E Curve Annie Pleated Skirt

We love this Curve Annie Pleated Skirt from Jacqui E in Walnut. Sitting just below the knees and fully lined, the skirt offers a very subtle sheerness at the hem, adding lightness to your fit.

Dangerfield Briony Pleated Mini Skirt

The Briony Pleated Mini Skirt from Dangerfield looks elegant with a tailored shirt, patent heels and a blazer for date night and equally stylish with a pair of opaque tights or even lacy tights and knee high boots.

Tony Bianco Connie Black Suede mules

Complete your midi pleated skirt fit with a pair of Connie Black Suede mules from Tony Bianco. The kitten heel mules look great with a pleated skirt and because they are a classic shoe you will get a lot of wear from them by matching them to jeans, tailored pants and dresses.

Steve Madden Executive Black

For a higher heel you may opt for the Executive Black from Steve Madden. Classic yet sexy, they will add the perfect step to your pleated knee length pleated skirt.

Charles & Keith Aelin Kitten-Heel Mules

If you are looking for an in-between shoe, not too high but not too classic, the Aelin Kitten-Heel Mules from Charles & Keith may be just the right choice for you. The black mules are dainty enough height-wise but serve extra character with their metallic detailing, which will look great with the mini pleated skirt and blazer look.
